| Description: | Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'kernel-linus' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2013-0343 advisory.
Vulnerability Insight:
This kernel-linus update provides the upstream 3.4.69 kernel and fixes the
following security issues:
The ext4_orphan_del function in fs/ext4/namei.c in the Linux kernel before
3.7.3 does not properly handle orphan-list entries for non-journal
filesystems, which allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial
of service (system hang) via a crafted filesystem on removable media, as
demonstrated by the e2fsprogs tests/f_orphan_extents_inode/image.gz test
(CVE-2013-2015).
Multiple array index errors in drivers/hid/hid-core.c in the Human
Interface Device (HID) subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11 allow
physically proximate attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a
denial of service (heap memory corruption) via a crafted device that
provides an invalid Report ID (CVE-2013-2888).
drivers/hid/hid-zpff.c in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem
in the Linux kernel through 3.11, when CONFIG_HID_ZEROPLUS is enabled,
allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service
(heap-based out-of-bounds write) via a crafted device (CVE-2013-2889).
drivers/hid/hid-pl.c in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem in
the Linux kernel through 3.11, when CONFIG_HID_PANTHERLORD is enabled,
allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service
(heap-based out-of-bounds write) via a crafted device (CVE-2013-2892).
The Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem in the Linux kernel
through 3.11, when CONFIG_LOGITECH_FF, CONFIG_LOGIG940_FF, or
CONFIG_LOGIWHEELS_FF is enabled, allows physically proximate
attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based out-of-bounds
write) via a crafted device, related to (1) drivers/hid/hid-lgff.c,
(2) drivers/hid/hid-lg3ff.c, and (3) drivers/hid/hid-lg4ff.c
(CVE-2013-2893).
drivers/hid/hid-logitech-dj.c in the Human Interface Device (HID)
subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11, when CONFIG_HID_LOGITECH_DJ
is enabled, allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial
of service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) or obtain sensitive
information from kernel memory via a crafted device (CVE-2013-2895).
drivers/hid/hid-ntrig.c in the Human Interface Device (HID)
subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11, when CONFIG_HID_NTRIG
is enabled, allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial
of service (NULL pointer dereference and OOPS) via a crafted device
(CVE-2013-2896).
Multiple array index errors in drivers/hid/hid-multitouch.c in the
Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem in the Linux kernel through
3.11, when CONFIG_HID_MULTITOUCH is enabled, allow physically proximate
attackers to cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption, or NULL
pointer dereference and OOPS) via a crafted device (CVE-2013-2897).
drivers/hid/hid-picolcd_core.c in the Human Interface Device (HID)
subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11, when CONFIG_HID_PICOLCD
is enabled, allows physically proximate attackers to ... [Please see the references for more information on the vulnerabilities]
